01:20.36pokoko222is it ok to ask a mentor what are my chances of being accepted ?
01:20.55pokoko222at least if the news are bad I can try another project while there is time
01:20.58ryaopokoko222: Yes.
01:21.22ryaopokoko222: I think people are suggesting that you apply for multiple things. If multiple people apply, only 1 will be accepted.
01:21.31pokoko222they are the ones with the final word right? google is just intermediary
01:21.40ryaoI believe so.
01:21.48ryaoI am mentoring and as far as I know, I get the final word.
01:21.56pokoko222saying to multiply for more things is easier said than done :)
01:22.02pokoko222to apply *
01:22.22pokoko222the project I am on now... it is taking lots of time just to get to know the code
01:22.29ryaoWhich project?
01:22.35ryaopokoko222: Also, you could look at this: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code/2012
01:22.44ryaois advertising his project. :P
01:23.07pokoko222you are so evil :D
01:23.09censorydeppokoko, I have heard from some others that there is a balance.  You don't want to apply to too many as your proposals will be weak.  But, all-your-eggs-in-one-basket may not be a winning strategy either.
01:23.35pokoko222so far I got it all on one
01:23.38ryaoOr you could propose your own ideas and have a better chance of no one else proposing it.
01:23.50pokoko222but so far on this one I am kicking ass
01:24.01pokoko222so far I say, some better dude might come out
01:24.24censorydepwell, if you feel like you're kicking ass, then I think it's definitely reasonable to show you work to the mentor and see what they think your chances are.

02:01.05MatthewWilkesthebolt: Assuming that none of the other boards I have tried already are fixable my unit cost is already down to 30 EUR, so, no big loss ;)

02:01.40DarrowMatthewWilkes: Where's the link to the official application? I can't seem to find it.
02:02.25MatthewWilkesDarrow: Log in/register as a student on the site and you should see an apply button on org homepages
02:02.59ojwbif they prefer to work on it via email first, then do that as pasting it into melange repeatedly is very dull
02:03.05DarrowMatthewWilkes: Ah, got it, was looking on the individual organization pages the entire time. Thanks!
02:03.05nightrockeri've never wordked on a real project, less an open source project, but i love coding? will my application be considered? thanks for responding

02:27.57chitzHello, I had mailed the organization that I'm interested in with the project ideas that I would like to work on this summer. The mentors of the organization replied to it. So is it advisable to start the communication with them on the mailing list itself or to personally mail them regarding this?
02:28.30ojwbchitz: use the list
02:28.41ojwbpublic communication is the default
02:30.49*** part/#gsoc MandiW (~wangman@199.111.221.44)
02:31.19chitzojwb: Thanks will stick to the mailing list. Also there is some kind of etiquette in gsoc, to not to include the "show quoted text" part in the mail. How valid is that in this case?

05:21.25Andrew_AskinsDoes anyone have advice for a first year student with limited experience who is eager to get involved and learn and really wants to participate in the program?
05:22.45Catfish_ManAndrew_Askins: get involved early, self-motivate as much as possible, abandon fear and ego
05:25.58Andrew_AskinsCatfish_Man What about as far as actually applying? I'm a freshman computer science student who knows Java, and that's about it, but I'm confident I can learn as I go. However all of the orgs seem to want extensive experience. How do I convince them I can do it?
05:26.53Catfish_ManAndrew_Askins: the usual two suggestions are a) to look for an easy-ish project from last year and see if you can prototype it, or at least understand roughly understand the solution
05:27.05Catfish_Manand/or b) to try fixing a small bug or two in your project of choice to get a feel for it

05:33.36Catfish_ManAndrew_Askins: or alternate, or do both at once, I don't know. :)
05:33.38ojwbAndrew_Askins: that's the better way round, as you'll learn quite a bit from working on the code

13:19.21Zorit seems very logical that if a mentor decides that there are no projects he wants to mentor, he can apply as a student instead

13:19.55MatthewWilkesZor: Were you aware there's a FAQ document?
13:20.17MatthewWilkesI only ask as so many people seem to have not read it, was wondering if maybe the link isn't showing for everyone
13:20.35ZorMatthewWilkes: that's not quite the thing I'm asking though
13:21.01ZorI know a person cannot be a student and mentor, effectively, at the same time
13:21.22aghislaI think that the person should decide whether being student or mentor prior registration.
13:21.24MatthewWilkesand you should "plan accordingly" as to which one you want to be in a given year
13:22.07MatthewWilkesZor: If you've made a mistake and want to withdraw as a mentor you can contact the melange mailing list and they will remove you
13:23.08gevaertsZor: Allowing to register as a mentor first would also allow looking at the other proposals first and then writing your own , i.e. cheating

13:50.37JordiGHcodepython7771: If you've already talked to them, sure.
13:51.01JordiGHcodepython7771: It would be a little a surprising if you mention a mentor and you haven't already previously agreed to work with her.
13:51.29tomprinceIt has to be a mentor for the org, since orgs typically wont take projects with random other mentors.
13:51.37JordiGHOh, that too.

13:54.20tomprinceIt is also probably more of an issue in large organizations, with lots of mentors. In a small org, if you've talked to them, everybody involed likely knows who you are.
13:55.22tjermanHi, What happens if a student applies for two projects in different organizations and is selected for both of them? Does he choose the project on which he will work on in the end?
13:55.36gevaertstjerman: it depends
13:56.03gevaertsIn many cases the student gets to choose, but the organisations don't have to ask, they can also agree between themselves
13:56.40gevaertsThe latter can e.g. happen if one of the organisations doesn't have good proposals to replace the lost one while the other does

13:59.05tjermanso the organisations know that a student applied for more then one project?
13:59.37gevaertsThey will get told about duplicates near the end of the selection period
13:59.39MatthewWilkestjerman: The student should voice a preference, you can do this by telling the org you prefer "By the way, I also applied for x, y, z elsewhere.  If you should happen to select my project and there is a conflict with another org my preference is to work with you on this"
13:59.53gevaertsIn general it's good form to say you applied elsewhere too
14:00.02MatthewWilkestjerman: But, for the record, the student's preference won't necessarily be listened to, you could end up with either

15:11.08nemokblin: isn't hard to checkup daily in IRC :)
15:12.15kblinnemo: depends on timezones of people involved
15:12.25buffygASF recommended daily, and we thought we'd try that. One problem we hadn't anticipated was time zone difference between mentors and students. Students had questions on a regular basis, some of which became blockers, and weekly checkin proved pretty insufficient. To be fair, some of that was not putting them in the regular channels.

15:13.17kblinwell, nobody would _limit_ the students to one question per week
15:13.25buffygWe get pretty good coverage on our main channels, as we have people in Russia, Western Europe, and both North American coasts.
15:13.51|Kev|kblin: We hand out 12 'question' tokens at the start. Students can use one per week if they want, or save them all for the end. ;)
15:14.33buffygNo, but the students either saved the questions up or tended to use minimally covered IRC channels to ask questions, and they didn't adapt well when it wasn't working well, even when encouraged. A lot of that was the premise of not having them engage as regular contributors.

21:34.56qballer1How many application where they last year?
21:35.18dhaun!numapps | qballer1
21:35.18gsocbotqballer1: "numapps" is 180 of 406 potential mentoring orgs were accepted in 2012. In 2011, 175 of 417 orgs were accepted; 3731 potential students submitted 5474 proposals, of which 1116 were accepted. In 2010, 151 of 367 orgs were accepted; 3464 students submitted 5539 proposals, and 1026 were accepted.
21:35.58qballer1Thanks
21:36.03ojwbwith the standard footnote that dividing slots by number of apps is pretty meaningless
21:36.31qballer1ojwb, explaind?
21:36.43qballer1explain* please
21:37.02ojwbseems popular to go from the above to concluding you have a ~30% chance of acceptance
21:37.20ojwbbut there's a lot of junk applications which stand no chance
21:37.33FatbagIf you graph number of students applying versus number of accepted applications, you'll get a sigmoid
21:37.34ojwbone line apps, pastes from the ideas list
21:37.44qballer1So that means that if you try a little that you chances increase by a lot
21:37.48ojwbincomprehensible ideas
21:38.18ojwbqballer1: yes, unless you're one of those applicants
21:38.28qballer1I toke an idea from the project like bug and I plan on implementing that.

21:39.29qballer1is that bad?

21:42.04ojwbthat probably depends on the org

21:42.21RazinovHi all. I have question about English. I have list of questions. 1) One question 2) Second question 3) Third question. The "3" is the same as "1". How can I say it in English? My assumptions: "point 3 is the same as point 1", "paragraph 3 is the same as paragraph 1". Please, correct me.
21:42.25ojwbcertainly wants to see that the applicant has thought through the project
21:42.47RazinovI don't like phrase "I have question about English", so please correct this phrase too.
21:43.11RazinovThanks in advance.
21:43.27ojwbRazinov: that phrase seems fine
21:43.52Razinovojwb:  "point 3 is the same as point 1" seems fine?
21:43.54ojwbyou could say "English grammar" perhaps
21:44.00ojwbwell, that too
21:44.06Razinovojwb: thank you
21:44.08gevaertsRazinov: *a* question
21:44.15ojwboh yes

21:44.32gevaertswouldn't use "some" there
21:44.39Razinovthank you all
21:45.22ojwbdropping articles in English seems a common mistake for native speakers from some languages, but it rarely actually causes a problem to reading it
21:45.33ojwbwell, at least to me as a native English speaker
21:45.44ojwbperhaps it's harder if it's a second language
21:45.59ojwbyou just read them in where they're missing, like I did!

22:14.33gsocbotgevaerts: "chances" is Odds, chances or probability really do not come into play for GSoC. Rambling off numbers or asking What are the odds of getting accepted... is really quite useless as one's acceptance is not dictated by luck or numbers, but by the quality of your proposal and your skills instead.
22:14.51gevaertswrites down "Don't confuse a ! and a |"
